1:34:34Motions just off the top to sort of set the foundation of moving forward the first one

1:34:41Little odd we're gonna fix this I believe for next year just so everyone knows but I need a suspension of the procedural by-law

1:34:49To permit all of the correspondence received about the budget up until this past few days to become part of the public record

1:34:58Okay, our procedural by-law originally says that it stops at

1:35:03What is it delegation night? I think yeah, and we need people were sending it into the clerks afterwards

1:35:09We should honor the fact that they took the time to do that. Let's make it part of the public record

1:35:14so suspension of the procedural by-law is a roark and

1:35:19Gibson now just as it's just a reminder. This is the first time I think for some new counselors

1:35:23We do need nine

1:35:25Votes on this one to actually suspend the procedural by-law to allow this so I'm gonna call the vote. Is anybody against?

1:35:32Beautiful that's unanimous. All right, so with that
